PC Golf Games

I was wondering if anyone can give me a good golf game to buy that is easy to play and can play multi. I want to play with friends.

Links is good, but online play can be a bit slow, also, since it is MS product now, you have to go thru the zone to play pick up games, which is a real pain IMHO. i haven't played any others.

Can it do Lan games so I can connect with my friend in the next room?

IMO the best golf game is Jack Nicklaus 5 - I think there is a newer version now, though. Me and a buddy did a lot of work with the course designer in this game - quite a bit of fun. I forget if it is network-capable, though. But, since it is kind of an older game you can probably get it really cheap.

I heard Sim Golf is pretty cool.

The reviews for Tiger 2k2 are looking good, I think I may have to pick it up as well.

Links is great.

I agree, Links is just the best golf game out there, I can't wait for the next version.

CompUSA will have it for 39.99 with a 10 dollar rebate for anyone interested.

Links should be 2 player over modem, 8 over LAN or internet (i think).

Links 2001 is for sure the best game out there right now and the one with the largest online community of players....tournaments and everything.

And yes, it will support LAN play. We had a very fun, semi-intoxicated, foursome at the last LAN weekend I went to with local friends.

Fausto1 thx for the info, after reading all about the Tiger Woods one it looks very good to me. It will have tourny play also, and I like what I read about waves crashing and mist spraying on the 18th at the Pebble Beach course. If you guys havent read it yet check out EA Sports site you might be as interested as I am.

Yeah, but it's made by EA which means it sucks!

Links is THE best.

Not everything made by EA sucks...have you ever played Superbike 2001? That game f*cking rocks....especially if you're a motorhead like me.

Gamespot gives the Tiger Woods game a higher rating then Links same with the player reviews.

Always glad to help.

 

[Superdoopercooper]

Yup... I jsut got Links Championship Edition (Links 2001 w/ some extra courses and crap)... AWESOME grpahics. It does play over the net. LAN: not sure about that one... i don't see why not. i can check the box if you're really interested.

I'll sell you my links 98/99 disks for a reasonable price.

 

[Fausto]

See above: does inded run on LAN. Extra fun very late at night after an evening of drinking and gaming with LAN buds. PM Bunker or Geekender for conformation of this as they were in on the silliness.

FWIW- Links2K1 also has a nice course designer included. I've had a good time making approximations of local courses I've played here in ATL.
